What kind of scandalous info does Horton have on this Board, its president in particular, that it just WON’T make him live up to his promises or even admit that they were wrong about him? It must be top-level blackmail-worthy. How else can you explain the utter bullsh$t going on with this Board? Getting Horton to pay up the full amount we are owed due to his default, well, it’s not just an opportunity to recoup money, it’s their actual responsibility to the citizens of this city. I am so sick of this board of education! They have abdicated all responsibility to the people they serve. I don’t understand why there aren’t pitchforks and torches and angry villagers mobbing the board of education meetings. This is a travesty. This city is going to be in ruins financially very soon between the fiscal irresponsibility of our city council and our current D 65 Board of Education. I’m disgusted. And I want to hear from people who still can defend what this board is doing. I want to hear the defense from this board. I want to hear from them why they think it is acceptable to lie to the public, to hide from the public hiring decisions that affect our children, to spend our money and lie about how much we have, and how we will use it…the list goes on. You may say they didn’t lie, because they allegedly didn’t have all of the information. My response to that is if they didn’t have the information, it’s because they didn’t look for it. Because they didn’t do their job. It’s literally their job to know and they sit complacently, trusting buffoons that have no actual experience doing their jobs. And God only knows what buffoon they are hiring next. They have already stated that their goals for hiring a superintendent do not match what the public wants and they also DGAF. This board has shown time and again that they will do whatever the hell they want, and the public be damned. I don’t understand how this can even happen in a city full of so many highly educated and invested citizens! How the hell are we allowing this to just happen? I gotta get out of this place- if it’s the last thing I ever do.
I don't know man, a lot of weird shit went down in 2020 so who knows what kinds of skeletons live in the closet down there.
I think you'll find the same attitude with the City of Evanston too, except a few city council members, most of them (including the Mayor) consider the stakeholders in decisions to be employees and vendors, and not citizens. The Mayor himself in one of the latest meetings chided the board for potentially damaging our reputation with commercial real estate agents!
I hate to be a paranoid "deep state" guy but the reality is that, in many cases the people we elect prioritize the bureaucracy over the people who elect them. I understand that they need the bureaucracy to get stuff done, but something is out of balance at the moment.
